Re: Windows testing required: Updated runtime

All,

I've put an interim build of pgAdmin 4 at https://developer.pgadmin.org/~dpage/pgadmin4-1.5-x86.exe for Windows users. This build uses a work in progress patch to replace the slow Qt components with ActiveQt + the Microsoft web browser control to significantly improve performance.

The version also includes close to 100 other bug fixes and changes, most noticeably performance improvements in the Query Tool that make it significantly faster than pgAdmin 3 with large result sets, and the ability to open the Query Tool and Debugger in new tabs that can be dragged onto different windows and therefore displays.

If you have the ability, please give it a test and let me know how it performs. There are some known issues that we're working on:

- The Query Tool History view isn't rendered correctly.

- Closing a tab is now detected when there's a dirty query tool window in it, but closing the window containing the tab is not.

- Inactive tabs have no visual definition between them. 

- When dragging a tab, the mouse icon changes to one with a stop sign in it.

- If you close the last tab in a child window, it doesn't close the window.

- Popout alerts don't display correctly.

Thanks!

​Hi Dave,

At first, I was not having the same positive experience as the others. After installation, the "Loading pgAdmin 4 v1.5..." message with the spinning icon just appeared indefinitely. After several minutes, I canceled it. Then I tried it again, and got this message:

Error loading script - /sqleditor/sqleditor

Error message

undefined

Then I disabled my AV software, and all was well. It launched in about 11 seconds (down from the 33 seconds I was getting on the previous version.)

I'll test it out a little further later. 

Thank you,

Shira​
